- To improve this we should work at
between 80-100% of 1 rep max
with low repetitions of weights
- e.g Chest press (Maximum 100kg), 80kg ->
100kg, low repetitions (4-5)

- To improve this we should work at between 40-60%

- e.g. Chest press (Maximum 100kg), 40kg -> 60kg, high repetitions, 10+
- e.g. Chest press (Maximum 100kg), 40kg -> 60kg, high repetitions, 10+
